Prickly Pear Cactus fruit

Willow, Frio and I (Dr. K was shopping) were in no mood to linger in the desert this morning; we were all about the business of getting in a hike before the day heated up even more than it had. There was a breeze, but its cooling effect was counteracted by higher humidity.
We followed our normal route stopping in shade for water and a brief respite before pushing on. All of us were glad to reach the waiting CR-V at the end of the trek.
So what did I do when we got home? I began to remove the honeysuckle vine growing on the northern wall of our house. I got it about half down before giving up.
